WERE NOT GAME
Hunco Man Tried to Land Attorney Pal-
mer but Grew Suspicion* and Kled.
Bartlesville was honored with a vis-
it by one of the most expert bunco steer-
ers in the country on Thursday and
had he approached some one less wise
than Attorney John E. i'almer he
might have pfeked up some easy
money.
On Thursday Mr. Palmer was ap-
proached by two men, one of whom is
b® th*e notorious "Albany
1 ' . City Marshall Kerr'having
recognized that worthy person tin the
description furnisned him bv the at-
torney. The plan unfolded* to Mr.
1 aimer wa; a plausible one. The
,Albany Kidd ' was posing as a real
estate operator and explained that he
desired Mr. Palmer to represent him
in a land deal he had on hand in Ok-
lahoma. He explained that he did
not wish to appear in the deal himself
and as he understood that Palmer was
the attorney for the First National
bank he had decided that he would be
just the man to carry the negotiations
through to a successful conclusion.
He merely desired the attorney to ac-
company him to Oklahoma when he
would be furnished with the necessary
funds with which to purchase the tract
of land worth $18,000. The wily co-
nologist incidently suggested, how-
that it would greatly facilitate matters
if the attorney would take with him a
certified check for $1,000 for the pur-
pose of "making- a front."
Mr. Palmer was fully aware of the
manner of man he was dealing with
but determined to go through with it
in hope of making a specific case
again,t them. When the two men
called at Mr. Palmer's office yesterday
morning they apparently became sus-
picious and after premising to return
WKMln ? T minutes, departed. Mean-
while Mr. Palmer seeing that the men
, were susp cious asked the Examiner
man to follow them. The men imme-
diatey proceeded to the hotel where
they had been stopping and after pay-
ing their bill, took their baggage and
caught the "Katy" train going north,
it having pulled into the station just
at this opportune time. In this wav
'hej\e8caPed City Marshal Kerr whb
had been looking for them.
The scheme the men had in mind
was to induce Attorney Palmer to ac-
company them with a certified check
in his possession and then obtain it
either by force or some Aim fiam
method.

MORTUARY RECORD.
Want* the State Fair.
The Chelsea Fair association has
decided to increase it's capital stoca
®7,;>00 and claims as its dates for its
annual fair September 26 to 29. The
association has determined to insti-
tute a vigorous campaign to secure
the state fair at that point. It pur-
poses to make a showing this fall at
its meeting that will be a revelation as
to the various agricultural, live stock
mineral and industrial resources of
the Territory. A new site has been
secured and Chelsea makes claim of
having the most ideal place for a fair
in the country, a sloping wooded
IK - °J,land, alone Pry°r creek
which is being dammed at that point.
In damming the stream a beautiful
shaded island is formed, which will be
used as a view point to boat racing.
The Last Hall Game*.
The last month for local league base
ba is now being played. August
will see eighteen games in Bartlesville
and unless a very large majority of
these, together with a number of "the
games on foreign grounds are won by
the home team, this city will be hope-
lessly in the rear in the championship
procession. During the season there
have been somewhere between thirty-
five and forty players wearing the blue
t?L?n. 8|V and of lh'9 number
Keddick alone, started with the first
game. Keddick is not the best pi aver
in the country, but he is a hard work-
er, conscientious and withal an honor
to the team.
